We progressives have our favorite states.
Sure, anyone can like New York or Massachusetts, or the entire rest of New England, but they have an advantage: incredible levels of education, which make electing Donald Trump or some other sociopath completely impossible. Then you have the Pacific Coast, with its focus on technology and entertainment. Lots of smart people with lots of money are also, not about to fall for an obvious conman whose goal seems to be crippling America.
But, subtracting out those advantages, you have places like New Mexico. Ahhhh. Breathe a sigh of relief. Can you image a neighbor of Texas with any level of gentility? It’s not easy.
Pleased (but not at all surprised) to see New Mexico in the news here.
And of course they’re right. Relieving the stress from young parents will help everyone (directly or indirectly) involved. Does anyone benefit from young people who can’t go back to work because they afford childcare? From poorly educated kids?
It’s possible that Americans are so angry that the Trump administration has ruined their country and its democracy that paid advertising for Republican candidates is having no effect on them.
We can only hope.
Obviously, the endorsement of a much-despised president didn’t help, but what chance did this election-denying moron actually have in a sophisticated state like Minnesota?
One good thing about having Trump in the White House is that doesn’t have enough sense to hide what a terrible person he is.
We all recall the COVID-19 outbreak, and Trump’s suggestion that we reduce our testing for the disease on the basis that less testing means fewer positive results, which means less outrage on the level of Trump’s ineptitude in handling the epidemic.
